Chapter 9 The Mysterious Comer
"Haruka-sama?!Are you alright?? I heard a lot of movement just now. The commotion in the room alerted the guards outside the room, who couldn't help but ask outside the door.
"It's okay, it's okay, I just accidentally slipped. Haruka hurriedly responded.
"Well, if anything happens, please let us know and we'll be out there keeping you safe. ”
"Okay, thanks. Haruka stood up and got up from the ground, while Im sat down on his bed unceremoniously.
"That... Teacher Yimu?" said with a vague heart, and he could see that the other party was angry.
"I didn't expect you to poke such a big basket as soon as we met. ”
"It's just a Cronin, originally a puppet of Aria. ”
"Even if he is just a puppet, but nominally he is still the president of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance, once he dies, the Chamber of Commerce Alliance will become extremely turbulent, now is an important period for various forces to form an alliance against the demons, and such a thing will only weaken the strength of the human side. ”
"I'm sorry, but all I can think about is avenging Natalie... ”
"It's not revenge, you already know what is going on behind the scenes. ”
"Aria is the mastermind, isn't she?"
"Pretty much, but the Templars are involved, after all, the original president Baron wasn't that kind to the Templars. ”
"Yes, no wonder Cassius was on Nightmare Island at that time, when he was still a member of the Temple... ”
"So what are you going to do next? Kill Aria again, and then destroy the temple along the way?"
"No, no, no, I didn't say I wanted to get to this point... ”
"The tripartite talks between the Temple, the Chamber of Commerce, and Altinia were supposed to be about forming an alliance, but now Cronin's death has made this negotiation full of uncertainties. ”
"What does it matter? Anyway, it was Aria who represented the Chamber of Commerce in the negotiations. ”
"You think things too simply, the three parties themselves are suspicious of each other, they don't trust each other, and now there is another assassination, and in the case of the murderer's unknown identity, either party can be the object of suspicion, and the already fragile relationship is now very unstable. ”
"It's ridiculous, obviously they don't trust each other, and they still want to talk about alliances, is this the way those so-called upper-class people behave in the world?"
"Even if it is a virtual alliance, it is what humanity needs now, if it is divided like this, the entire continent will eventually fall, you don't want such a thing to happen, right?"
"Well, I'm really too impulsive. Haruka supported his forehead with one hand and shook his head helplessly......
The once peaceful city of Argos has become bustling with the assassination, with torch-armed Karnas soldiers roaming the city, searching for any suspicious-looking figures.
"Really, it's getting noisy. "In the window of a hotel room, a man with a wide hood and a difficult face was looking around at the soldiers coming and going on the street.
Suddenly, the door to the room was violently kicked open, and a group of soldiers rushed in.
"According to the innkeeper, you're a traveler who only came to Argos this morning, aren't you?" the soldier asked loudly.
"That's right, sir, what's going on? The man asked with a smile.
"No comment, press him back for interrogation!"
"Wait, if you want to arrest someone as soon as you come up, won't it be too unreasonable. ”
"Stop talking nonsense! Give it to me!" As the non-commissioned officer who led the team gave the order, the others rushed up.
"Ice-" The man chanted, quickly drawing a magic circle in his palm, and the wooden floor was quickly covered with a layer of frost, and the soldiers who swarmed up lost their balance and fell to the ground in embarrassment.
"It's a magician!!Take him down for me!!" The soldier standing behind quickly began to chant attack magic, and soon several small magic circles appeared in the air.
"Hey, hey, are you really here!" Seeing that he had nowhere to hide, the man leaned against the window.
"Hurry up, or we're welcome!"
"I refuse!"
"You're welcome!" As the non-commissioned officer gave the order, all the attacking magic arrays began to bombard the man indiscriminately. A large hole had been blown out of the exterior wall of the entire room, and in the smoke billowing out, the man leaped from the third floor of the hotel onto the street.
"Catch him!! the soldiers around him began to swarm towards the area, and the man climbed the building on the other side with great skill, and then quickly climbed to the roof.
"Really! What a disaster!" the man sped along the ridge of the roof, and after crossing a few streets, he basically shook off the pursuing soldiers. Just as he was leaning on the chimney of a certain roof, he was about to catch his breath, when several flying blades suddenly shot out of the air.
The man quickly drew his sword from behind him, barely blocking most of the attacks, but his shoulder was cut by one of the flying blades, and the blood instantly stained half of his body red.
"This move ... Is it a temple guy!" the man stuck his sword into the roof and pressed the wound with his other hand, the light of healing magic appearing in his palm, barely stopping the bleeding.
"You're a prisoner, aren't you?" a Templar in white robe appeared before him.
"Prisoner, I don't know what you're talking about!" the man raised his sword.
"Do you still have to resist? I can only cut off all your limbs and bring you back for interrogation. Dragoon!!" As soon as the Templar finished speaking, the flying blade whistled in.
Seeing the flying blade stabbing towards the man from all sides, he didn't mean to pull out the sword at all, and at the moment when the flying blade was about to stab him, the man's lips moved slightly, as if he had said something, and all the flying blades suddenly hovered in the air, as if frozen.
"What?!Why are my dragoons out of control!" the paladin looked at each other with a stunned expression.
"Go, dragoon!" the man waved with one hand, and all the flying blades suddenly turned their spears and flew towards their original owners, and with a terrible cry, the paladin fell in a pool of blood......
